Swenson Shotsis designed to give emerging artists their first experience producing a gallery show from start to finish and provide a space for a more experienced artist to experiment and showcase a new line of work. The shows will have a fast turnaround, with artists having the space from Monday to Sunday with an opening on Thursday. This is just enough time to set up, have an opening, document the show, and conduct private visits with curators, gallerists, and potential buyers. This complete, soup-to-nuts opportunity is key to launching promising careers beyond the studio and into the professional art world.

Past Artists Featured in Swenson Shots:

II SOON - Hugo Montoya & Leah DixonJanuary 7 - 13, 2015

Leah Dixon and Hugo Montoya are Conceptual Provisionalists, who believe in sideways protest, and who both have a knack for peeing in the pool. II SOON is a two-person show regarding an ongoing dialogue about sculpture, American media commodification, labor, justice, and Post-Relevancy.

Swenson Shots presents Alles Gut, an exhibition by Alan Gutierrez and Aramis Gutierrez which attempts to cultivate a serendipitous connection between the two painters which may or may not exist regardless of their appellative coincidence.

'Y bueno, que se le va a hacer/No queda otra' is a phrase my grandma repeats daily. In English, it means "Oh well, what can you do/There's no other way." This show is inspired by her mahantra and relentless indifference/endurance.
